Executive Theme Change Home Top to 2 Column

[kateolynch]

I'm working on a test site right now:

I'd like to have the home top area be only 2 columns instead of 3 but I do not want them to be even. I'd like the first one to be 67% and the 2nd to be 33% is that possible? If so I am missing where to specify only 2 columns and how to specify the width of column 2 and actually place content in column 2.

Thanks in advance!

You can use column classes within a text widget (depending on what you need to display in each column) to accomplish this without a lot of changes to the theme files. For example, if you wanted the first column to show an image and the second to show text, you could do something like this:

<div class="two-thirds first">
<img src=LINK-TO-IMAGE></div>
<div class="one-third">
Blah blah text.</div>

Hopefully that makes sense. If you need to create two separate widget areas instead, that's a little more involved, so I thought I'd start with the easiest first. 🙂
